Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Coppers, among the Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast, were highly valued items of both material wealth and cultural significance. They were indeed often displayed at potlatches, large ceremonial gatherings, as a sign of wealth and status. Each copper had its own name and history, adding to its value and significance. Additionally, coppers could be destroyed as a display of wealth and power, particularly during potlatches, to shame or outdo rivals.
